Er, if I'm understanding you right, it's iso. Iso on the front is the comm view. I'm thinking of the one that's at roughly the same angle as all but one of Skyblade's old Dreden graphics. Looks Iso to me.

Starkiller, we lobbied Skyblade and Mac quite a bit to have pirates added to BFS III. How did you manage to be "Human Independent" so easily?
And if your Independent status gets "shot down," please consider becoming a pirate.
#1 We need more pirates.
#2 It is much less rigid than those other (militaristic) governments. (They are so ... rigid, with rules and strict adherence to rank, etc.)

Ah, so you're saying that you'll be choosing one in the middle of the game? IF you just want to see how they work, you could also look back at BFS II. Should be back a couple of pages. It should give you a decent idea of how the governments work.

~ I have returned ~
I'm not sure that you can be an independent,Starkiller.
The glorious Interstellar Imperium(also known to Human scum as the Alien empire)will always welcom you into the ranks of the Imperium.
More commanders under my flag is always nice-speaking of that flag,I'm working on it
Thankyou for not starting the webstory without me.

Well, here it is folks. The replacement of the Siege Carrier is here. (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/spl_cadet/drake.html")The Drake-class cruiser(/url). This means that I am getting somewhere close to getting all of the images ready for the pirate side. All I have left are: Starscreamer, Cougar, guided propulsion mine, some other stuff I can't remember. Lord Asriel could you e-mail me what I left out. HNR and tri-photon are done I know.
(edit) silly me. I left out the link.(/edit)

Could you remind me again what the LRBM is and does? Long Range B___ Missile, I think it was, and what kind of ResEdit stats does it have?

Long Range Bombardment Missile. It's torpedo with enough speed and manueverability to hit fighters.

Don't count on the price you set, spl. Mac may change it. Oh, Mac, are we sticking to the BFS II price index?
ResEdit stats
HNR -- EnergyDmg = 900; MassDmg = 1100
Tri-photon turret -- EnergyDmg = 25; MassDmg = 8
LRBM -- EmergyDmg = 100; MassDmg = 160
Guided propulsion mine -- EnergyDmg = 300; MassDmg = 400
Buster cannon -- I don't know this weapon's final form. Somebody post it.
Anything I left out?

I think so, and I'm not really sure who's doing the pricing yet. It may be me, I'm not sure. I doubt the ship's creator will get to set the final price, though.

I knew I didn't. If I did get to I would have made it free. But the pricing seems pretty reasonable to me.

Never said it wasn't. I'd have to sit down and study stuff for a while, like I did the first time, to decide if it made sense or not.

Humm we Imperial soldiers are just using the ships we got in BFS II-all of them,including the Fighter,Battlecruiser and Cruiser,and everything else.
Of course,we will create better vessels later on-I already have plans for a strike cruiser
Could someone remember the stats for the Alien vessels?

Like you need anything other than that Destroyer... :rolleyes: I think I outdid myself a bit when I designed that thing, it's a killer.

I still have all the old stats pages. ResEdit stats for the weapons were mostly created on the fly based on intended performance parameters during BFS II. I have cargo and space stats, but omitted those because they're largely irrelevant; I can give you them if you want.
** Range for beams is in some sort of pixel measurement, 10000 ~ 30 with a speed of 1000 on the projectile weapon scale.
*** Projectile range is a duration, and the overall range is affected by the weapon's speed.
HeHeHe you don't like Imperial destroyers,Mac?
You have only yourself to blame.
Don't worry,"Imperial Strike Cruiser" can also be spelt "Heavy Imperial Destroyer".

The advantage of this, of course, is that I know all it's weaknesses very well. let's see, weaknesses... um... oh no.
